The axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) is a single species within the Ambystoma genus, known for its unique ability to regenerate limbs and retain larval features into adulthood, a condition known as neoteny. However, there are several color morphs of the axolotl, including the wild type, leucistic, golden albino, and melanoid, among others. While these variations exist, they all belong to the same species.
